Neither For nor Against
We all have the freedom to choose in every single moment
what and how we think and phrase our thoughts.

We can choose to say: "Don't
eat this, this is bad for you!"
We can choose to say: "Eat
rather this, this is good for you!"
Mother Teresa said it so well:
"I was once asked why I don't participate in anti-war demonstrations.
I said that I will never do that, but as soon as you have a pro-peace
rally, I'll be there." |
It makes a huge difference in our lives if we are FOR something or AGAINST. Mother Teresa set an example of fine quality with this saying, and the world was listening, astonished by the simple yet deep wisdom within. But it was merely half of the wisdom, as you will see later.
Being against something carries the energy of war within. It is the battle about the decision-making judgment about right or wrong. Before we can be against something, we have to define it as wrong.
How do we define things as wrong?
First it has to be different. If something wasn't different from what we do, feel, think, believe, have, or desire, then we couldn't make a judgment. In other words, it is the process of opinion making.
A: "It is my opinion that this book is good and very informative."
B: "In my opinion this book is bad and spreads dangerous thoughts."
Both A and B have build their opionion based on a right/wrong judgment.
Who is right?
Neither A nor B, because there is no right or wrong . . .
Who has made the better choice?
Neither A nor B, because both opinions are based on judgment.
And this are the answers of a master!
Those awakened and enlightened beings walking this earth don't have opinions, because they don't judge. They know that all there is, is part of God's creation. They know, that everything there is (e.g. minerals, plants, animals, humans) is made from the same stuff. Energy. They realize that the (seeming) difference between all kinds of existences is the illusion of matter.
They know there is no difference between a pebble and a man's heart; both are atoms held together by energy, an intelligent force called God, Source, or The Light.
These awakened people (masters) don't judge. They don't need to, because it is all the same. Behind the curtain of illusion there is no difference.
They don't see any difference, therefore they are unable to judge and to build an opinion.
Masters are at all time fully aware that there are no differences, therefore it is impossible to judge, to have an opinion, or to stand for or against something. They are connected to Source (God, The Light) at all time, feeling the oneness with all there is. It is impossible for them to experience separation. All is one, because all originates from the same Source, therefore they can't see any difference. All is good, because all is God's creation.
Masters stay in the state of oneness, which is bliss, expressed through equilibrium and equanimity, no matter what happens around them.
You may ask a master,"But there is war, right in this moment somewhere on this planet. There is hunger, pain and suffering all over the world. How can you smile and seem to be happy?"
And a master would answer,"The world I see is peace and love."
You may ask a master, "How can you have no opinion? Aren't you FOR peace?"
And a master would answer, "Why should I be for peace when there is already peace?"
A master creates her/his own reality; this is exactly what defines a master.
And we all are here to claim back our mastery. Step by step.
You don't like war? Then create peace!
No need to be against war.
No need to be for peace.
Just be in peace, live peace, share peace, and thereby you will change the world: first your own world - others will follow your example and change their own worlds, and therefore the world is changing.
Where you make peace, there is peace. No need to stand for peace, because peace is already there where you create it.
The concept of being neither FOR nor AGAINST something (having no opinion) may be confusing for some of us. But it is worth the effort to penetrate this thought and meditate on this concept, as it carries the chance within to overcome the density of mind and to open up to a higher consciousness.
So as always: Believe nothing, not even this article. Find your own truth within -- Know Thyself -- but allow yourself the possibility of experiencing a higher perspective from the place of non-judgment and an opinion-free mindset!
Love and Light,
